Senior Fullstack Engineer (Frontend Focused)

Mentimeter is one of the fastest growing startups in Sweden. Our vision is to transform presentations and meetings into fun and interactive experiences by making it easy to listen and to be heard, as well as create meaningful engagement. We are building a modern and diverse fast-growing profitable product-first tech company and are based in Stockholm.
Mentimeter serves hundreds of millions of users with services that we deploy roughly 40 times a week. With transaction loads up to hundreds of votes per second, we have to be sure we can scale while still delivering a fast and smooth experience.
We work in small, independent, cross-functional and self-organizing teams. The team's Product Manager, Engineering Tech Lead and Product Designer organize and plan the team's backlog with a focus on continuously delivering value to our users.
We are looking for Senior Fullstack (Frontend focused) Engineers to join our Product department.
We offer a friendly but challenging environment where you will be meeting technically difficult tasks and be given a lot of responsibility from day one.
We believe in a fast paced development, with the possibility to try new things and experiment in a psychological safe environment.
What you'll do
You will be an integral part of one of our cross-functional product teams, implementing features that will affect millions of people all over the world.
These particular positions will be working on brand new business areas, meaning you will be working at the forefront of our offering, helping us position ourselves in our segment. You will be pushing boundaries through smart and innovative work with cutting edge technology.
Depending on your preferences and skill sets you either work solely on the frontend or in the full stack but for this role we put a lot of emphasis on the frontend side.
While implementing new features you will keep in mind the long-term stability of our system and the quality of the code.
You will try to strike a good balance between discovery and implementation work, between new customer facing features and managing tech debt and technical initiatives.
Since Employee Experience (also known as Developer Experience) is very important to us, we hope that you will raise your voice by influencing which tools, programming languages, and technologies you work with while helping us ensure we have a smooth software pipeline for continuous and fast delivery.
Skills & Requirements
Who you are
Typically, for this role we require more than 5 years of related work experience as a developer and through your experience you have gained a good understanding of frontend development for the web.
You are a reliable, high-performing individual contributor with solid understanding of your area of specialization.
For this particular position, we believe you are a person who gets motivated by a short feedback-loop, quickly seeing the effect your work has on end-users. We believe the key to being the first mover in our segment is smart and innovative work aided by cutting edge technology. In order to thrive in this, with us moving fast forward, you should be flexible and embrace change.
Your current language of choice doesn’t really matter, as long as you are open to learning and trying new things. Of course, onboarding might be quicker if you know one or more of the languages we use, say React or Typescript, but we believe that you can learn any language, or tech stack, if you want to. Self leadership is key here.
In addition to being a good cultural fit (see our values below), we hope that you bring a passion for software development, scalable architecture and building great products. For us, is it important that everyone cares about code quality so an interest in testing and automation is needed. Excellent communication skills and being able to work both independently and in a team are some other traits we are looking for in all of our colleagues.
Last but not least: Having a curious mindset, being open to learning & sharing knowledge and of course: that you are interested in working with our tech stack.
